A Second Chance to Make Good
A/N This is my first Wicked fic. Elphaba is my fave in the musical. So I imagined her adopting a child like her with magic.
It was raining in Oz and Elphaba was depressed in the Wicked West.
She missed Galinda but missed Flyero.
They'd never got a chance for their love to bloom.
But one day she was in the Emerald City in disguise when she heard something.
It was a child.
She seemed scared, afraid.
"Please don't let them take me!" she sobbed in fear.
Elphaba heard angry shouting and saw the Witch hunters.
"Why would they hunt a child?
She's harmless even if she's a witch." Elphaba thought as she came towards the child.
"Don't be afraid child.
Come with me." She said softly.
The child looked like her sister Nessa.
"W-Who're you?" the child asked softly.
"You don't have to worry about me.
The Witch hunters you do.
They've tried to hunt me but failed." Elphaba told her.
The child climbed onto the broom nervous.
The Witch Hunters were angry as they saw Elphaba on her broom with the child on the back, her long black hair whipped by the wind along with her long black cape.
Flyero smiled watching that.
"Maybe she still has a bit of goodness in her.
She must see that child is a witchling." He told himself softly.
Galinda was nervous as she heard that the Witch Hunters had failed.
"Why're you so intent on catching that girl?
She's just a child." Flyero told his wife.
"Because she'll grow up to be a witch like Elphie!
I can't let that mistake happen again." Galinda replied angrily.
"You can't forgive yourself for what happened to Elphaba.
She was your friend.
But that little girl might not be bad like that.
But then again...." he thought looking out at the Emerald City.
Elphaba watched as the young girl slept.
There was something about her that reminded her of Galinda.
It was her eyes.
The girl had brown hair, blue eyes, light skin.
She was in a blue dress.
Elphaba then realised why she looked like Galinda.
"But why?
Why do this to somebody you care about Galinda?" she thought as she heard the winged monkeys return.
"Be quiet!
Can't you see she's sleeping!" she snapped.
She needed to think what to do next.....
